about farming, and that is, make all

make your own guano. Last year
l made my guano and made "a bales

RALEIGH, n. c., May II, 1887.

l wish you success in your enter
prise Never did class of people
need information more than the farm
ers of this State It seems to me that
they have been made the burden bear
ers by the government, corporations
and monopolists. 1t is vain to talk
about realization of any great pros
perity in North Carolina until our
farming interests become more pros
porous. To say that the farmers are
doing badly, is to say that the State is
not prosperous, for at present most of
our people are engaged in agricultural
pursuits. Intelligence is the great
panacea for all economic ills, and /
hail with pleasure any instrumentality
in making the best thoughts of the
best minds wide spread among ouy
people. /
With every good wish. I

MORNING STAR FARMERS CLUB.

Our club held a most interesting
meeting on the l4th inst We dis
cussed the best methods for cultivat-
ing corn and cotton, and a lively
interest was manifested throughout.
Mr.. j. S. Funderburk was added to
our number by unanimous vote, and
Rev. J. B. Richardson and Daniel
Mullis we're elected honorary mem
bers. Mr.. Richardson made us a
capital talk, in which he gave us
sketch of Mr.. Simpsons model farm
near High Point, and his plan for
making fertilizers, &c.
1t was ordered that the proceedings
of our meetings be sent to The Pro
GREss1vE FARMER regularly for publ
cation. Our club meets again on the
second Saturday in June,

If you are in debt and your land
plastered all over with mortgages, we
know of no branch of agricultural in
dustry that will enable you to pay of
those encumbrances so surely and so
quickly as the breeding of the dairy
stock and the marketing of dairy pro.
ducts. The dairy brings you in cash
money every month in the year, which
will enable you to pay up as you 60.
Out of the sale of dairy products you
can pay cash for your supplies of every
description, pay your labor, buy your
farm implements and then save month
ly, something over to lay up in the
bank as a net profit.
Your surplus stock will be all profit.
This can also be paid on debts, or en-
tered to swell your bank account.
The surplus milk of your farm Gf you
sell only butter) can be fed profitably
to pigs and enable you to make all
your meat at home. When you make
all your meat at home you are then
we'll on the road to profitable farming
The manure from your stables
and scrapings from your cow and
horse and pig lots can be saved and
judiciously applied to enrich your land,
and richer land will enable you to
raise larger and better crops, and en-
hance the money value of your land.
You can raise your corn and oats and
hay and potatoes, and all other food
crops for man and for beast-you can
raise all on the farm.
Besides this you ought to be able to
sell yearly one or more bales of cotton,
potatoes, fruits peanuts, vegetables,
small grain and other crops. If the
cash coming in from the sale of dairy
products pays for the raising and har
vesting of these crops, the money they
bring in will be clear profit to pay
more debts Or to help again to swell
the bank account.
Don't be stingy; a stingy man is
mean man. But you can study strict
economy in every detail of your bust
ness; and you can soon learn to prac-
tice that economy, and the habit will
grow on you as you cultivate it
